23 days. A radish everyone should plant; it is early, of fine quality, refined, 
smooth, attractive appearance and pungent flavor. Small, bright red and 
as round as marbles, 34 in. in diameter, with thin, bright red skin. The 
flesh is pure white, crisp, and delightfully snappy. Tops are short, mak- 
ing it desirable for growing under glass. The quicker they are grown 
indoors or out, the crisper their flesh and the more delectable their flavor.

886 Crimson Giant Globe 
29 days. Sweet, crisp, juicy, brittle, and a wonderful yielder. A fine gian 
bright red radish. This radish differs from most others as the roots iain 
a large size without becoming hollow or pithy. The shape is a perfect globe, 
2 in. in depth, 1/ in. in diameter, with thin, tender skin of deep crimson and 
solid white flesh. It is a very popular variety, of large size and the finest 
quality. Early, notwithstanding its size. Sow seed thinly to permit full} 
development of the roots, and for the biggest radishes see that the soil is 
moderately moist, fertile and deeply prepared. Crimson Giant should be 
thinned to a wider spacing than smaller varieties; we suggest leaving at least 
2 in. between plants for full development. Pkt. 10¢; oz. 30¢; 14 lb. 90¢.

Winter Radishes 
These require cool weather at the finish of 
their growing season. Sow seed in early 
summer for fall use; in midsummer for 
late fall and winter. By storing roots in 
moist sand in the cellar, fresh, crisp rad- 
ishes may be had during the early winter. 
We offer 3 best kinds. Give plants plenty 
of room by thinning out when young to 
stand 3 in. or more apart.

Summer Radishes 
The following varieties require more time 
to mature than the spring radishes so that 
they are becoming ready to use when the 
others are gone. As they grow more slowly, 
they endure heat better and are valuable 
for summer use. Flesh is mildly pungent.
